50 Ways To Leave Your Lover - Rosemary Clooney

The problem is all inside your head '

He said to me

The answer is easy

If you take it logically

I'd like to help you

In your struggle to be free

There must be fifty ways

To leave your lover

He said it's really not my habit to intrude

Furthermore' I hope my meaning

Won't be lost or misconstrued

But I'll repeat myself

At the risk of being crude

There must be fifty ways

To leave your lover

Fifty ways to leave your lover

Just slip out the back' Jack

Make a new plan' Stan

You don't need to be coy' Roy

Just get yourself free

Hop on the bus' Gus

You don't need to discuss much

Just drop off the key' Lee

And get yourself free

Just slip out the back' Jack

Make a new plan' Stan

You don't need to be coy' Roy

Just listen to me

Hop on the bus' Gus

You don't need to discuss much

Just drop off the key' Lee

And get yourself free

He said it grieves me

So to see you in such pain

I wish there was something

I could do to help you smile again

I said I appreciate that

And would you please explain

About the fifty ways

He said why don't we both

Just sleep on it tonight

And I believe that in the morning

You'll begin to see the light

And then she kissed me

And I realized she probably was right

There must be fifty ways

To leave your lover

Fifty ways to leave your lover
